If things are too perfect, people are always so afraid that it's going to change, so they ruin it themselves.

Everything is acting.

I am a character, so that's the problem. There are many, many levels to how I behave. Some people might associate being Marilyn Manson as having lipstick on, but I don't really have some sort of other lifestyle.
